The Lair

I really need to get off my ass and get the HAM license. The practice tests have scared me off. Too much math and science for my dumb ass.

 

That's next level malicious

 

If you have the technician license (lowest tested HAM license) then you still need a GMRS license. They are completely independent of each other.

 

Got my Y strap in. I LOVE IT.

 

So basically I would need to get the technician license in order to legally transmit over the approved 462 and 467 freq's? Dang I thought the GMRS license was the halfway point where you can use it for recreational communication, no digital or text capabilities...otherwise I'll have to find out when they'll resume testing (presuming onsite testing has been suspended with CCP virus woes).

 

You put d rings into the bed, for the back two anchors?

I was curious if the permanent side anchors would suffice/if the strap was long enough to fit between the two (though I imagine you had to customize the strap lengths?)...

 

Ok, now you're going to make me read aren't you?!

 

Yeah, between trying to coordinate skid delivery Tuesday and why do I even try to do things the right way (FCC related at least)

 

Cursory review screenshots for GMRS license stats per FCC website

 

I don’t have those anchors there so I added my own. I don’t think the side ones would work though. My strap is for a 35”-40” tire and the back two straps are mostly extended.

 

Dammit Dave @Rome604 , now I need an aspirin and a nap!

Yea, sorry @My Name is Rahl @Greg's Outdoors don't listen to me anymore. I don't know squat about squat. All I'll do is get you into trouble with the MIB.

I could have swore that no license was needed at all or the HAM Tech license covered it.

 

Yea, that's where I was too

 

I'm so confused...

 

Sorry for so much confusion Rahl. It's my fault for just throwing shit out there at you.

Here is a link to a forum and the guy here is showing a step by step direction of how the process happens.

Yes, it is confusing. I hope this helps and if not, I will PM you my phone number and I can talk your through it while we are both online.

 

Get it while it's hot...

New desktop and cell phone wallpaper hot off the press!!!

I can’t tell if you’re joking or not...but I’m actually collecting pictures for a calendar...
